Set high on a hill, dominating the skyline and overlooking the ancient town of Arundel, is the Cathedral Church of Our Lady and St. Philip Howard.
Lower down the hill is Arundel Castle, seat of the Dukes of Norfolk. The church, which was made a Cathedral as recently as 1965, was founded by Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk, in 1868. Built in the French Gothic style that would have been popular between 1300 and 1400 it was completed in 1873 and opened to the public on July 1st of that year.
The Church was originally dedicated to Our Lady and St. Philip Neri. Following the canonisation of the martyr Philip Howard, 20th Earl of Arundel, by Pope Paul VI in 1970, as one of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales and the reburial of his relics in the Cathedral, the dedication was changed in 1971 to Our Lady and St. Philip Howard
A few days before the celebration of Corpus Christi (60 days after Easter) a carpet of flowers is laid down the Cathedral’s central aisle by Cathedral parishioners. Open for public viewing, usually the day before and on the day of the celebration, thousands come to visit the Cathedral and see the flowers. The flowers are trampled underfoot by worshipers at the 5.30pm Mass, which is followed by procession to the Castle for Benediction.
